Twinkling Watermelon

MUST WATCH!!

This drama is top 2 in my drama list and oh my gosh this shows the efforts of a man for a woman he love and A REAL SON i guess....... idk lets look at some pointers why is it a must watch kdrama!


ACTING: The cast was veryyyyyyyyy goooddddddd every role is given suitable to every actor and they acted it so WELL! The couples, friendship,bond between son and father,efforts for love this drama shows all of this and if you like time travelling drama this is a must watch again we have found first point why is it must for you.

OST: Actually i don't notice OSTs much but it was soo good and fit soo well with the moments between the each other so it was a 9/10 for me.

STORY LINE: The story was a 9/10 for I'll tell you why. First of all it was a time traveling drama and i am watching time travelling for the first time it was confusing in between but then got it after sometimes. I know Yoon chung Ah was not his first love but the troope was veryyyyyy good it was SHE FELL FIRST HE FELL HARDER i love these kinds of troops yeah back to topic Yoon chung Ah was not his first love but his true love and i felt so bad when he acted rude with her in starting but poor boy he didn't know she was deaf but later they shared moments with each other, he learn sign language for her and i was melted at that point like THE EFFORTS!! He also protected her and she got along so well with his family, he ate her food even though it was not good, i have noticed one thing in kdramas that the efforts that is done by a man can also be done by a real man like in real life so why to lower girls standard and that is not that hard to do. The bond between son and father is like 😭🫶🏻 oh my god he did everything for his father that he doesn't go deaf but being deaf was in his destiny like meeting yoon chung ah!❤️ But i cuted 0.5 because second lead's screen was not much like their dating era they didn't show much😭 but still this drama i can't forget in my whole lifeeeee😭❤️🫶🏻

how do i do ?

So, you're telling me it's over! You're telling me I'll never rediscover it? Please tell me I'll get over it in a week.

This drama is what got me back into it. I was feeling a bit nostalgic, and it drew me in.

It was exactly what I needed to get back into the drama sphere, a cute and colorful interlude in my life.
The slice-of-life plus music group combo is so satisfying, as we saw with Hospital Playlist (let's talk about that drama, it was so, so good!). Honestly, I didn't expect to enjoy it so much, and you end up getting so attached to the characters.
Their little stories of relationship hiiii, oh my god, stop being so damn fucking cute!
I'd rather warn you, you get a little caught up in it too, you feel like you could make music yourself. It's inspiring, this group of friends making music together. Okay, so this is a really sweet series that's so easy to watch and makes even the rainiest days a little brighter. But don't be fooled by appearances; there are times when the rain doesn't just come from the sky.

But that makes the journey into the world of this drama even cooler.

Yes, as you can see, I'll always have this drama in my heart.

So colorful and cute! VIVA LA VIDA!
🎵I got a drama way over town that's good to me oh yeah🎵
now let me cry alone and found a new drama to forget that i'am sad

This drama felt so real and touched me on a deep level

Twinkling Watermelon – 9.5/10
This drama felt so real and touched me on a deep level. It made me reflect on my own childhood, my attachment styles, and the things I never fully healed from.

Twinkling Watermelon didn’t just tell a coming-of-age story—it showed what a truly healthy, loving family should look like. It reminded me that parents are just kids who grew up with their own struggles too.

The characters were written with so much heart and care. Watching them grow, heal, and love properly felt like a lesson I didn’t know I needed. Beautiful, emotional, and full of life.

Love the storyline. Seems typical taken to the past to change their life for the better but still showing that there are still things that cannot be changed and we have to accept it.
Typical one of the leads with trauma that needs dealing with.
But overall fun banters and some life lessons can be found.


Acting wise;
I love everyone’s acting, very convincing but I found the Male Lead’s character insufferable. Really really hate his character always interfering and being unreasonable even when he meant well to bring his parents together. Just thought it was a bit much.
Was expecting more screen time between his parents and their romance.

First of all: imitating Silvestri's music for Back to the Future wasn't essential. That little arpeggio annoyed me.

That said, it takes its time at the beginning, a little too much. Probably to show that the time travel thing isn't that central. But neither is the music, since everyone plays superbly without making the slightest effort. It's borderline genetic...

However, I demand a moratorium on characters travelling into the past who are surprised that people don't know their future and get lost in pointless misunderstandings. People have been sentenced to death for less.
Another thing: the fact that one man's affection for another is ridiculed for being gay, I think that's pretty lame and spoils the relationship between the two characters. (a son and his young father, no less).

"When life gives you lemons, make lemonade"
Personally, I'd rather wonder why I'm stuck in a remake of It's a Wonderful Life. In short, the cast is excellent but the story doesn't move forward enough for me to be carried away with it and that disappoints me, unfortunately.

I cried tears in the end because it broke me and built me up at the same time!

I wasn’t really getting the hype during the first episode. Sure it was fun and moving but I wasn’t obsessed with it. Then came the time travelling back to the past and even that wasn’t so fun seeing Ie chan going after se gyeong etc but damn shortly after it started growing on me so muc i became totally invested in the characters! When Ie cha lost his hearing after all I legit cried tears and I never cry easily ! I wish he didn’t have to lose his hearing but that’s part of his story and I’m okay with that. This drama is perfection and I totally understand now why it’s so highly rated! 100/10 starts for such a beautifully moving experience!

We all deserve a twinkling life!!!

Starting off with one of my favourite lines in the show;

“Here is a thing about life
It may not give you everything you want..
But it does hide a little present for you from time to time..
I hope you can endure
The cruel hardship life throws your way...
So you can receive the present life tucked away..
To you and every one you want to protect..
VIDA LA VIDA...LONG LIVE LIFE”

- MASTER

Twinkling watermelon was a beautiful and heartwarming and heart wrenching coming of age drama about youth friendship love music family time travel bromance acceptance trauma parental love and understanding ..all of this can be used to describe this drama.

The cast was spot on ( I love how each of the actors managed to make their roles shine)

The characters were all written beautifully..I loved the imperfect setting for the characters which made them relatable and also made their characters growth and development natural and beautiful...they also each had their charms which added to the beauty of the story and the characters them selves.

The story was a roller coaster of emotions....I found my self laughing alot and crying alot most of the times but I loved how it had this aspect of consistency hence remaining to what it was originally set out out to be...a beautiful and heartwarming drama about healing friend ship youth family music and many more.

The acting was AMAZING, I think this was the dramas greatest weapon....the actors and actresses had a natural potrayal or emotions it almost felt real at some point...the acting was the kind that could move you in an instant and make you feel the characters pain and happiness.

The chemistry between the couples was undeniably good...I loved both and hoped to see more of them...one couple being calm and beautiful and the other being chaotic and fun.

The osts were beautiful and nostalgic.

The dialogue was well thought out educative and relatable..there were many life lessons thrown in both directly and indirectly through the different scenarios the characters go through...I loved how the drama tried it's best to potray disabilities as a gift that should be appreciated and something you can feel proud of rather than a burden or something that can make you feel insecure about your self.

This drama managed to touch various sensitive topics that kept me invested considering the fact that they were things that happen in out actual lives and things that we could all relate too in one way or another....which I definetly loved so much.

The ending was heartwarming and heart wrenching yet beautifully captured...I hoped it was a bit longer since I wanted to see more but either way I felt satisfied to some extent.

Do I recommend this drama?

Definitely....if you want a drama with amazing casting, acting, a consistent and beautifully written plot, with well thought out dialogue, life lessons, music friendship, growth, family, love then this is exactly what you should be watching...and you can thank me later.

EASILY ONE OF THE BEST DRAMAS OF 2023

It's so worth watching at least once but after seeing it, MORE THAN ONCE!

This is my first review. Personally, I don't watch K-dramas but I got this drama recommended from a friend. I didn't expect much, she told me the plot and that it was worth watching and so I gave it a shot. There is 16 episodes and on average is around 1 hour long each. I'm so grateful that this story talks about disabilities (being deaf and using sign-language). The struggles and the topic of family. It's a very heartwarming, gut-wrenching and trauma filling story. There's so many moments in Twinkling Watermelon that was worth watching. I seriously seriously recommend it! Here is my opinion/feedback:

I CRIED. SERIOUSLY SO MANY TIMES. I freaking love this K-drama and is 100% going on my rewatch this.
Each episode leaves you hooked with either a cliff-hanger or something you did not expect. The cast delivered each of their roles so well, especially the main actors. I felt like it wasn't a movie and that we were actually there. You can feel the emotional impact that leaves you wanting more. I'm telling you I literally cried like a baby every single episode 13 above, it made me have a huge mental breakdown (episode 14 is THE BEST EPISODE in my opinion) - no spoils just you will cry. overall I recommend it. There is laughter, tears and most definitely LOVE but more on family love :). Love your parents, struggles are real and you don't know what they go through. To be loved is to be seen, change yourself for the better to set yourself free from what your running from. You can learn a lot from this drama. Twinkle to shine - be yourself for yourself not for others!!
